The seaside village of Schwalenburg casts a spell over visitors with its fascinating history and unique atmosphere. This impressive rampart castle complex, which looks back on a long history from the 8th to 10th centuries, extends over a diameter of an impressive 300 meters. It is one of the most important archaeological sites in the region and offers a deep insight into times gone by.

Visitors can expect an authentic experience when they explore the three preserved ramparts. These mighty ramparts tell of a time when people lived and worked here. Historians and archaeology enthusiasts will be inspired by these silent witnesses to the past, which still retain their secrets today.
Schwalenburg Castle is also a place of peace and contemplation. Surrounded by dense forests and inviting hiking trails, this place offers the perfect opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy nature in all its glory. The views of the surrounding landscape from the small observation tower are particularly impressive.
The district of Schwalefeld is the ideal starting point for this journey into the past, which can be perfectly combined with other explorations in the region. A detour to Schwalenburg is more than just a visit to a historical site - it is an invitation to rediscover the connection between man, history and nature.
